The Vice President, Global MSP Business is a senior go-to-market and business leadership role responsible for defining, scaling, and executing Cohesity's global MSP strategy. This role owns the operating model, performance, and impact of Cohesity's MSP route-to-market-ensuring managed services partners consistently drive pipeline creation, consumption-based ARR, and long-term platform adoption across Cohesity's data security and cyber resilience portfolio.

This is a true builder role. MSPs represent one of Cohesity's highest-leverage growth engines as the market shifts toward consumption-based pricing, outcome-driven services, and security-led data protection. The Vice President will own the global P&L for the MSP motion and will be accountable for translating product strategy, partner economics, and field execution into a scalable, repeatable growth engine.

How You'll Spend Your Time Here:

• Establish a repeatable playbook for onboarding, enabling, and scaling MSP partners from contract to first revenue and beyond.

• Drive joint demand generation, co-marketing, and field activation with strategic MSPs across Americas, EMEA, and APJ.

• Partner with leading global and regional MSPs to design and launch repeatable services built on the Cohesity Data Cloud, including BaaS, DRaaS, ransomware recovery, and cyber resilience offerings.

• Work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, and Pricing to influence MSP-ready packaging, multi-tenancy, billing, and consumption models.

• Define service blueprints, reference architectures, service tiers, and partner economic models that enable profitable scale.

• Serve as the executive owner of Cohesity's MSP motion globally, accountable for pipeline, bookings, consumption, and forecast accuracy.

• Build and maintain the global MSP operating cadence, including KPIs, QBRs, executive reporting, and partner tier frameworks.

• Ensure tight alignment between MSP execution and Cohesity's broader Worldwide Field Organization strategy.

• Build, lead, and scale a global team of MSP-focused leaders, sellers, and technical resources.

• Act as the executive face of Cohesity to top MSP partners, engaging in executive sponsorships, QBRs, and long-term joint business planning.

• Partner closely with Sales, Channel, Alliances, Product, and Marketing leadership to ensure consistent execution and prioritization.

We'd Love to Talk to You If You Have Many of the Following:

• 15+ years of experience in enterprise software, cloud, infrastructure, or cybersecurity, including 5+ years leading MSP, service provider, or consumption-led GTM motions at a global scale.

• Proven experience building and scaling a global MSP organization within a large, complex technology company.
